Note to Self

Every day, I'm exhausted. So much to do, so little time I have. Isn't this typical of what we say? I know I feel this and say it a lot lately. 

 A couple of days ago, I looked at our pictures files to develop. There was one picture that was stuck in my head. It was a picture of Ethan and me, taken in January 2012 when we played in the backyard, building a snowman. There I looked at my little man who was so cute and happy. I looked happy too. But there was more. I looked at how pale my face was, how tired my eyes looked, and how no fresh I was overall.

I realized that I had not been taking good care of myself for the past few years. Oftentimes, I forgot how to relax and take the time to really just rest . . . until I was sick a couple of weeks ago. Nothing major. It's just a cold but the cold hasn't really gone until now and it's not a type of me being sick. I'm usually the healthiest in the family but I guess it finally takes a toll on me. People started to mention how tired I look and it's just like a confirmation, isn't it? It is not too late, I tell myself. 

Changes have to be made. My husband and I have been talking about changes that we need to make in life and we are working through them. Maybe first, I need to try not to work on the weekend. I've seen a few Etsy shops lately that are closed on weekends and holidays. Maybe I should do that, eh? 

Do you like the print above? I just found this Going Place 2 shop today and really love this shop. Check it out when you get a chance!

I've been Tagged!

So I admit, I love making gift tags! But I also LOVE being TAGGED!

Sweet Lesley had tagged me. Btw, she has such a cute blog. I really like her illustrations!

Here is the rules: Write 6 random things about myself, link the person who tagged you post the rules. Tag six people and link them. Let them know they have been tagged.

  1. My favorite food is fried chicken. But a side of chilli or 'sambal' is a must!
  2. I need my sleep. I can sleep anytime, anywhere in most cases. :-)
  3. I'd rather shop for supplies (papers, embellishment, glue, etc) rather than clothes and jewelries shopping.
  4. I love to travel. It's my dream to travel around the world.
  5. I don't like talking on the phone and try to avoid it if I can even though it's something that I really enjoyed doing it when I was a teenager.
  6. It's probably strange, but I'm not a fan of chocolate. I eat it when I feel like it, but I tend to say 'no thank you' when someone offers it to me.
So here are 7 bloggers that I'm tagging now:
Karina

Katherine

Rachel

Robin
